skytash 0 #1 December 11, 2004 The other day a kind security guy at the airport asked me give him one of the lighters I had in my carry-on bag. Apparently you are allowed to take one on board, but not two. I've been racking my brains about this, and thought people here could help. What damage can be done by two lighters that can't be done with one????? tashDon't ever save anything for a special occasion. Being alive is a special occasion.

popsjumper 2 #3 December 11, 2004 You can supply one to cheap-ass security guys who can't part with the money to buy their own...My reality and yours are quite different.

freeflir29 0 #4 December 11, 2004 The govt is running things. You know damn well it isn't gonna make sense. I laughed my ass off when I saw some TSA clown actually running his fingers through this ANCIENT old lady's, in a wheel chair, hair. I understand that they are looking for stuff that might be carried on UNINTENTIONALLY by people.....but...come on...... They do keep a LOT of dangerous items off planes though.

cocheese 0 #5 December 11, 2004 You can do 2wice as much damage with 2 lighters.I love the emergency exits. I've put a lot of thought into the proper way to surf that door for one last but loooong freefall. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigway 4 #6 December 11, 2004 so you are not allowed knives on a plane but you are allowed a lighter and smokes. A smoke filter is made with fibreglass.....if you burn the end of a filter and press it togethor, it will melt togethor, sharpen this by keep doing it. or do three togethor.....you got a sharp blade..... terrorist traing camp .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

bigway 4 #8 December 11, 2004 well if i was allowed to make a rule it would be a rule that would bring peace to the aircraft, and peace to any person there that was on board as a terrorist. Everything would be fine.... Rule number 1; air hostess must be naked at all times .Karnage Krew Gear Store . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SBS 0 #10 December 11, 2004 A coworker of mine just went to Amsterdam for a week. He told us last night that in his jacket pocket, when he got back, he realized that he had a box cutter. It had been there the whole time...4 security checks. But god forbid you'd carry on 2 lighters... -S_____________ I'm not conceited...I'm just realistic about my awesomeness...

usskydiver 0 #18 December 12, 2004 Mr. Plummer, Cut you or Kill you? There's the debate.... I recently graduated a Princeton grad from Combat Control School. Mr. X was a great student...very focused...and a great swimmer (holds the 1500m record) two brothers were lawyers but he elected to serve in Special Operations...a good man who I hope will do great things for our country....

There's the debate.... my guess would be they've already made up their mind that their going to kill me... so I'd just resort to process of elimination in such a case :) ... btw - Im from Princeton, in the military also... what his name? ......ahhh Mr. X , nevermind, I understand... thats cool though Im sure he is capable...
